Directions

Preheat grill to medium. (No grill? See Broiler Variation, below.)

To prepare dipping sauce, combine orange zest, orange juice, water, honey, 1 tablespoon vinegar, ¼ teaspoon salt and coriander in a small saucepan; bring to a boil.

Whisk cornstarch and the remaining 1 teaspoon vinegar in a small bowl until smooth.

Add to the saucepan and return to a boil, whisking until thickened, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Remove from the heat. Stir in mint.

Sprinkle drumsticks with the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper. Oil the grill rack (see Tip).

Grill the drumsticks until crispy on all sides and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, about 15 minutes total.

Serve the drumsticks with the dipping sauce on the side.

Broiler variation:

Position oven rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat broiler to high.

Prepare sauce.

Coat a broiler pan with cooking spray.

Sprinkle drumsticks with salt and pepper, then broil, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, about 15 minutes total.
